Surrounded by ocean and with many of its must-see highlights within easy reach of the coast, Ireland is a superb destination for cruising. Remote island cultures; dramatic high cliffs; geological oddities; fabled mountains; empty golden beaches; picturesque fishing villages; monastic retreats; castles and prehistoric sites: there is always something of interest around the next headland here. Popular ports of call include Cobh, from where Irish emigrants once set sail for the New World, and nearby Cork; Northern Ireland’s capital Belfast and the spectacular Giant’s Causeway. Down the coast, you’ll find Dublin’s easy Irish charm quite irresistible.
